Lessons Learned

I was ten years old the day i got caught

With some dime store candy that i never bought

I hung my head and i faced the wall

As daddy showed me wrong from right

He said this hurts me more than it does you

Theres just some things son, that you just don't do

Is anything i'm sayin' getting through

Daddy i can see the light

(chorus)

Oh lessons learned, man they sure run deep

They don't go away and they don't come cheap

Oh theres no way around it

Cause this world turns on lessons learned

Granddaddy was a man i loved

He bought me my first ball and glove

Even taught me how to drive his old truck

Circling that ol' town square

He spoke of life with a slow southern drawl

I never heard him cause i knew it all

But i sure listened when i got the call

That he was no longer there

(chorus)

Oh lessons learned, man they sure run deep

They don't go away and they don't come cheap

Oh theres no way around it

Cause this world turns

On lessons learned



(solo|repeat chorus)
